trigger a hard limit the Hard Limit alarm will be displayed.

the alarm.

A Probing alarm occurs during a probing cycle where Masso does not receive a signal from the probing
sensor within the specified distance.
You will also get a probing alarm if the probe is already in the active state when a probing cycle is started.
To clear issue a new probing command with a valid distance ensuring the probe is not already in an active
state.
